"Capt. Francis M.Y. "Frank" McNeely (or MacNeely) was killed April 12 at Salisbury. According to historian Robert Lee Hadden, McNeely was involved in an exchange of gunfire at the Confederate Arsenal, and he killed two Yankees before he was shot. Another account says that after he was shot, he was beaten so badly that he died. A native of Rowan County, McNeely enlisted at age 21 in 1861, was appointed captain of the Rowan Rifle Guard, and served a year before returning home to Salisbury because of illness. He kept his commission and remained on light duty, which means he was probably working at the arsenal or the prison. "
